Ben Buckle Elf Biplane

This is a 60 inch scale up of the original Frank Ehling design from 1938 which was a 39 inch span free flight model.

The Elf Biplane is very popular as it is nicely different from many vintage designs and as with many scale ups the lines come out well and look nicer on the bigger model. The plan was drawn up by Mike Whittard who also built the prototype that is shown on the box label.
